Old Conduit House, the restored Gothic Grade II* listed six-bedroom house in Hampstead is available to rent via Aston Chase for £4,750 per week


The 5,054 sq ft (432m2) characterful property provides excellent family accommodation arranged across four floors comprising an entrance hall, drawing room, dining room, study, kitchen/ breakfast room, family room/tv area, principal bedroom suite with dressing room and large ensuite bathroom, five further bedroom suites, utility area, two guest WC's, gated off street parking for two vehicles and an 80 ft (24 m) west facing rear garden. 


The upper ground floor is characterised by a stunning entrance hall with an arched vaulted ceiling, internal white brick walls, and a white marble floor patterned with terracotta tiles that leads to an exceptional 30 ft (9m) reception room and interconnecting dining room beyond a lush front garden and classic Gothic façade.


The reception/drawing room benefits from imposing floor-to-ceiling windows to either side, framing a central full-height bay window ensuring that the capacious space is flooded with natural light, whilst providing access to symmetrical terraces, overlooking the rear garden. Green and gold panelled walls and a white marble fireplace feed the grandeur of the room, which is partitioned by intricately detailed gold and green gilded arches (with the design extending to the gilded ceiling) complete with terracotta marble columns that offer depth, in addition to scope for a formal and informal sitting area. 


The subsequent dining room (which can also be accessed via the hall) features its own vaulted arch ceiling, wood-panelled walls, and a statement-inscribed marble fireplace surround. Arched windows provide views of the front garden. 


The lower ground floor accommodates an extensive, open-plan family area and dining/kitchen with access to the garden. Additionally, there is an ensuite bedroom which would provide an ideal opportunity for live-in staff.


A round stair turret ordained with a series of stunning stained glass windows leads to the first-floor principal bedroom suite which is complete with a dressing room, private balcony and ensuite bathroom centred around a free-standing circular bath. The first floor benefits from one further ensuite bedroom. 


The seventh bedroom/study, which was previously a chapel room and is brought to life by a magnificent original wall mural, is located on the second level. It has access to a terrace with views of the tower and has three further ensuite bedrooms. 


Hampstead has retained its quaint charm, and the many lanes lined with eclectic shops and independent cafés create a rural ambience that is unique given its proximity to the heart of London.


The village further provides opportunities for those looking for a taste of the English countryside, with attractions such as Kenwood House (an outstanding English Heritage Site featuring expansive grounds with tranquil landscaped gardens) as well as the 800 acres of wilds to explore in Hampstead Heath - London’s largest ancient parkland, with spectacular views over the capital’s skyline.

 

Arron Bart, Lettings Director at Aston Chase commented: “This opulent family home with such an illustrious history really is the perfect plot for families with young children with big imaginations. An unusually modern open plan living space on the lower ground level provides ideal space for flexible family living, and with the 80ft garden and neighbouring Hampstead Heath, there is a real sense of spaciousness. Old Conduit House presents an exceptional opportunity to experience life in your own mini castle!”

 

Mark Pollack, Co-Founding Director at Aston Chase added: “This unique and historic property is a real gem in the heart of one of London’s most sought-after areas. An unusually high concentration of actors, artists and writers call Hampstead home and bankers, entrepreneurs and celebrities alike flock to the area attracted by the exceptional schools, Hampstead Heath and the village vibe with its bustling high street of shops, cafés, restaurants, art galleries and markets.”
